Maharani's Choice Parippuvada Review

Maharani's Parippuvada: Horrid

I flew into a rage after eating Maharani's Choice "Parippuvada".
Never has such a spiceless, tasteless Parippuvada monstrosity made contact with my spice hardened Indian tastebuds.
Usually, Parippuvada is a spicy snack that goes well with Beer or piping hot Madras Coffee or even Masala Chai.
But not the fresh frozen Parippuvada peddled by Maharani's Choice available at Oak Tree Road and other New Jersey Indian grocery stores.

Packaging & Instructions

Parippuvada box included a total of 7 medium-sized pieces in a sealed plastic bag.

Inside Story

Instructions on the back of the box suggested the Vadas be thawed first to room temperature and then to either steam or microwave them.

I followed both methods - Steamed three pieces in the Indian rice cooker without the pressure nozzle for 15 minutes and microwaved the remaining four pieces on high for four minutes.
